This motherboard supports Dual Graphics Technology. When installing the add-on
VGA cards to this motherboard, you are allowed to choose two different ways to
decide the function of PCIE2 slot (PCIE x 1) and AGI Express slot. The default value
of this feature is to enable PCIE2 slot (PCIE x 1) and AGI Express slot (only PCI
Express x 1). You can also adjust the jumpers to disable PCIE2 slot (PCIE x 1). Then
only AGI Express slot (PCI Express x 4) will be enabled. In other words, you are able
to adjust the jumpers to enjoy the benefit of Dual Graphics feature. Please refer to the
table below for the correct jumper settings.
